Why don’t women hold the priesthood in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints? How do Mormon women lead in the Church?

As a young girl I remember asking my Mom out of simple curiosity why Women didn't have the Priesthood. She told me an answer I have never forgotten. She immediately asked me why Men don't have babies?! As silly as it sounded, it made complete sense to me. My Mom then explained that we each have roles in life. She answered in a way that a young child would understand & yet as an adult now, remains a truth that I hold dear to my heart.
I have never, ever felt any "less" important to anyone, including my Father in Heaven because I don't hold this calling of the Priesthood. Having the Priesthood does not mean you are a "better" person than the next person, but it is simply a calling that one is willing to take on.
It is the power of God here on Earth & I am so glad that Heavenly Father is willing to entrust those who are worthy with it. It should be honored, respected and used when appropriate or it is simply taken away.
The Priesthood is something that I am very grateful to have in my life and in my home. I am blessed to have so many family members, neighbors, and friends that are willing in the blink of an eye to stop what they are doing and give a priesthood blessing to me, my children or anyone who desires one.
As Women, we have so much going on in our lives as we are continually serving. Helping others comes more naturally to us. I love how having a Priesthood calling pulls Men in the direction of service as it is required of them to serve as Christ would.

I think it is SO interesting that there are some who have the idea that LDS women are suppressed in some way. I think we are the most liberated women anywhere. We are loved, and cherished by our leaders, and they speak of women with incredibly respect. women don't hold the priesthood because they don't need to. They already have a divine role to take part in the creation of man, the Lord granted us the ability to grow life inside us, WHAT A MIRACLE. Mother's intuition that people speak of, this is a direct link to Heavenly Father, this is how he works through us to raise up future generations. There is a talk by Gordon B. Hinckley titled "The Women In our Lives". You can find it on LDS.org, or by Google. It is an amazing talk. I LOVE the priesthood, and I am a living testimony of the power of it. I had Leukemia when I was 19 years old. I didn't have very good chances at the time, but was blessed to have a perfect match with my sister who donated her marrow to me. Through two significant Priesthood blessings, we knew I would live, and I would feel well again. Through a priesthood blessing, I was made whole, and assured that the direction I desired in my life would come. We are blessed to have it on this earth, and I am grateful to the men that live worthy of holding it. I'm grateful for the allegiance it brings out in men, it softens them, and makes them service oriented. What a gift.

Are Mormons Christians?

If a Christian can be considered someone who believes in Jesus Christ and accepts Him as their Savior, Lord, and Redeemer, then yes, Mormons are most definitely Christians. All other doctrines and principles aside, it is only through the Grace, Merits, and Mercy of Jesus Christ that we can be saved from our fallen state. At the end of the day, it comes down to our personal relationship with the Lord and His merciful hand extended toward us in forgiveness of our wrongdoings. I firmly believe His words and His promise that through faith in Him and His words and works, I can be saved and accepted into His kingdom.
